You may not be growing fonder of me… since I haven’t been on here for a while, but I do think about you all and wonder what everyone else is blogging about! I wonder about all of you that I visit on a regular basis! And for my friends and family that come on here to read about what is going on in my life… well, I’m sorry… you haven’t been getting much information lately have you?

Here is what is going on…

My computer is still down. My good friend Matt sent me a spare part in hopes that we could just unplug and plug in sort of thing…but it didn’t work. I now have my PC at the PC Fixer guys! I am hopeing he gets it running real soon! I miss it. And Darren is getting irritated with me using his!

Also, I am very busy getting my latest project finished. Truly Christmas is this coming Sunday! I will put photos of my centerpiece on here when I get my computer back!

So, between a) no PC, b) teaching the boys, c) working in my studio, d) nursing a nasty burn from an industrial glue gun, and occationaly feeding my family, I have had VERY little time to be on my blog site. But I will come back soon! With pictures!

Blessings to all and I look forward to catching up with you all next week perhaps!

P.S. Heidi (Adventure Girl Wannabe) I will get over there and get those awards as soon as I can! Thanks!

I am a mother to four boys, and a teacher to the three youngest. I enjoy really KNOWING my kids and finding each of their unique talents. I went into homeschooling kicking and screaming many years ago, and you couldn't pay me to give it up now. Teaching these boys about their Savior, and making them into great Christian Warriors is my most important duty.

I am also an artist and love to create things big and small. In the way that most women can't get enough shoes, jewelry and clothes... I can never have too many art supplies! :)

Jesus is the center of our home, and there is no way I could do what I do with out the assurance that He is with me everyday. Ever since we brought Him into our home, there has been an undeniable peace here. Not that nothing goes wrong, or that we don't get sad, mad or angry. We do. But there is an underlying peace from Him that gives us the courage to keep going when the world seems to be crumbling around us.

This blog is just some of what our journey along life's path entails - as time allows, of course.

Chiari Malformation

I would also like to bring attention to Chiari Malformation II. A rare birth defect that causes the brainstem and cerebellum to develop down in the spinal column instead of up in the skull - where they belong. Therefore compacting the spine, brain stem, cerebellum and possibly blocking the spinal fluid.

Read the story about our son with Chiari Malformation titled Gare-Bear's Chiari Journey in the tabs above, or in the pages below.
